I'm not sure how I feel about this being my final week. The stress level is at an all time high right now and I literally feel sick to my stomach over how half of my projects are still in the infancy state or how complicated I've decided to make things.
The linoleum cut still has more area left in it for me to carve and it's been a steady, oh 4 days? of working into it and there is still far too much detail in it. I hate the large rabbit I'm doing, I only like its cheeks and nose right now--I can't decide whether or not to just build it then add a face or say fuck it and hand paint most of it instead of gluing/sewing the details on. Then the multiples (bunnies) are still far too scarce to consider them copious.
I'm just disgusted with the time management I've been able to sustain out here for my studio practice, probably more so over all the readings I've been doing that just seems like busy work to me. I need something more challenging right now in the readings, I knew I should have brought that Nicholas Bourriaud book or bought that Philip Guston memoir. I just need some time to myself and I miss that, but it will happen soon enough. Right now I'm trying to get back into the Philadelphia mindset and am thinking about actually doing the sketchbook project again... Nighttime Stories has caught my attention. We'll see though. I'll try to upload some images soon, who knows if it will happen before I leave.
